This short film depicts the day-to-day reality of a Palestinian teenager
living in Hebron. As soldiers who served in Hebron we acknowledge our
role in this reality. In this short, Awni is arrested for fighting
with youths from nearby settlements. Soldiers have no authority over
settlers, so Palestinians always pay the price. As such, child arrests
have become a mundane fact of reality in Hebron.
